A failing regulator can show up as a battery that won't hold a charge, dim headlights or a battery warning light. Those signs can have other causes, so with the engine off and cool, look over the battery terminals and the alternator connector for corrosion or looseness first. If the regulator is the cause, this one replaces it.
